Yeah in my experience riding Greyhound in the Great Lakes late 2000s-mid 2010s it's not as bad as people made it out to be, if you got a newer bus. Service was frequent and cheap and I never faced a cancellation that wasn't due to snow. Though it may be because the New York - Chicago routes are heavily used.

I would rank it around the same as budget airlines like Spirit. Maybe better because there were rarely infants traveling IME.

Still no public transport beats a train for me, even Amtrak. You can't beat the space and comfort.
